If you could eliminate one person from history...who would it be?

187. Actually I think it would have.

The British Empire's form of slavery was indentured servitude in much of it's colonies. The exceptionalism of the United States in enacting slavery is due to the way it was implemented and how disturbing it was. The British did have slavery but it was again more like indentured servitude versus being used as cattle and/or put in muzzles---again very unique to the United States. So even if the British Empire did maintain some of the colonies in the South...Like Virginia or South Carolina it would still have had an indentured servitude. American forefathers are the ones that made Blacks into slaves.

I think the problem would not be so much Slavery being stopped. If I have to think the persecution of native people's...I need to as far back as hoping Columbus' ship sunk.
